A late Xmas present, or could I be so lucky.

Congrats mate, will eagerly await the progress of this little one, also would this be a genetic trait to be passed on to its offspring or is this a one off freak occurance.... forgive the ignorance... i know bugger all about genetics....Pics when it emerges completely...

Congratulations Devil, it's great to see a few more of these popping up. Here are mine.

Are they going to be sold off or are the few dedicated breeders going to swap a few to vary the bloodlines??? Or will they be put back over siblings, parents etc??? How long before the average keeper will find these becoming readily available within the hobby??? What price would one expect to pay for one of these little beauty's???

 

[Helikaon]

amazing cant wait to see some of those come up on the market

 

[Deb64]

Stunning snakes mate. The blue around one if them's eyes is gorgeous but I love the one with the brown head. That's a gorgeous looking snake. Might have to add to the wish list. Or I could make the wish list one thing: everything.

Amazing, congratulations! Can't wait to see it out of the egg but it already looks to be very white.

Thanks for sharing those jamesjr, they are absolutely stunning.

Thats 3 keepers who this year for the first time ever bred pie's/latisic's from Stimsons. Whats going on?? Congrats guys

 

[paultheo]

sure is a fantastic sight to see peeking out of an egg at you.

 

[thomasssss]

very nice , also good to see that people havent started making wild accusations saying that it must be crossed with a pie childreni from snake ranch or something like it , like what happened in the thread where another member came fourth with albino stimmies and he was accused of crossing it with mac blood

Only 3 have admitted publically that they have them......... if i'd been lucky enough to have one of these surprise packages i'd be keeping quiet about in on public forums.....

 

[Xeaal]

Who do I have to beat, bribe or kill to get one of those please?

 

[Skelhorn]

Congratulations Devil, it's great to see a few more of these popping up. Here are mine.

Love the one thats all white with the brown head. hahaha Awesome!

Hey, it great to be able to find a couple of site that will open. My internet is only marginal at best today.

As the pics show the news is not good. Yesterday I had reached the stage of thinking that given the time they were taking leave the eggs they might now survive.
I was also of the thought that maybe they weren't pied, rather it was a deformity and for some reason the development had stalled.

I was right in a way, it seem they have a lethal genetic deformity.

I brought the parents from friend in Brisbane about 2 years or so ago. They were both only about 70 grams at the time. I was told who the breeder was but had forgotten who.
Turns out he is on my list of facebook friends and saw my post yesterday.

He has been in contact and told me that he has hatched the same babies every year for the past 4 years and the white ones ALWAYS die.

It would seem that this fatal genetic trait carries through the clutch. The adults are going to a friend with long term plans of out-crossing ect to try and maybe get a couple to survive with some new blood introduced.
